Did the prosecutors do some things that I really don’t approve of? Yes. Did it rise to the level of prosecutorial misconduct from a legal standpoint? I don’t think it necessarily did. Them putting on evidence that they know was untrue? Totally inappropriate. But would that have been able to get Kyle a new trial if he was found guilty? I don’t think so.

This was not a case with just one reversal for prosecutorial misconduct, but four. That is unprecedented in the history of the American legal system, in other words, every time Doug Evans won a conviction, he did it by cheating. After each trial, Jim Hood's office tried to defend Doug Evans on appeal, and each time they lost.

political inhumanity- this is the inhumanity shown by government against its own people or any people who runs to it for help and safety, yet is blatantly denied access to care. It should be classified as a crime- against humanity, and those responsible should face the prosecutorial justice of the world court.
